    The dining options nearby are legit! Elmer's Restaurant served up some hearty breakfast that’ll make your morning. Plus, the room was equipped with a microwave and fridge, making late-night munchies a breeze.

    But hold up, the place has paper-thin walls—let's just say my neighbors had a busy night. Plus, the towels were so tiny, I had to double them up, and water pressure nearly turned my shower into a monsoon.

    Comfortable room, clean bathroom, with a fridge and microwave that made our stay convenient for snacks and drinks, alongside free wi-fi to stay connected during our visit.

    The external appearance is somewhat dated.

    Family with children should consider this place

    The place was quiet and cozy. The manager was very helpful and friendly when we checked in, and the beds were clean and comfy

    It wasn’t exactly budget-friendly but still acceptable.

    A mixed experience at the Thunderbird Motel. The location is convenient, with local restaurants nearby, but the room was subpar, featuring old repairs and a lingering smoke smell. Staff were friendly, but the overall condition of the hotel left much to be desired.
